STRIPE TEE (OLD – SIMILAR SALE VERSION HERE AND HERE) || BLACK WATCH || CELINE BAG (NOT SOLD ONLINE – IN LOVE WITH THIS ONE)

Probably one of my favorite closet staples is stripe anything. From a basic stripe dress to a boat neck tee. You can’t go wrong with stripes. They are great foundation for pattern-mixing. Plus, as time has told, stripes are a classic chic look that never goes out of style. Below are the three closet stripe staples you need in your closet:

1. Boyfriend Stripe Tee: It has its obvious comfort appeal when paired down with jeans, but a boyfriend stripe tee is also surprisingly easy to dress up.  Striped tee + skirt + heel = no-brainer. For a more unique pairing try a striped tee, oversized cardigan and joggers paired with heels. I saw this look and was so inspired:

2. Stripe Dress (also loving this grey stripe dress) Stripes look just as good with heels as they do with sneakers (just ordered these), so add a stripe dress to your wardrobe that works just as well from 9-to-5 as it does on weekends. Just opt for a hemline than would be considered office-appropriate (love this midi cut and this one) and accessorize accordingly. For a dressier office look opt for a stripe shirt dress.

3. Stripe Pocket Tee: Branch out of your basic black and white tees by opting instead for a striped tee with a pocket detail (isn’t this one perfect?). The pocket detail gives it a more relaxed feel. For a weekend look you can keep it basic by pairing it with cut off shorts and sandals or add a touch of sophistication to your relaxed vibes with a blazer and sneakers. Also loving this scoop neck one.

I just ordered these two stripe tops (long sleeve boat neck | short sleeve grey stripe). They are on major sale over 50% off. I have a couple of their tanks and they are so soft. My favorite!

How do you wear your stripes?
